Telltale Games

HoppyDragon · 06/05/2009, 11:18 am

So, who has pre-ordered Tales of Monkey Island?

MusicallyInspired · 06/05/2009, 11:23 am

Not yet. But I've got some money transferring into my PayPal account as we speak.....it only takes 6-8 days!

Sigh. Not having a credit card sucks.

Armakuni · 06/05/2009, 11:25 am

I've obviously pre-ordered, how could I pass this up

I'm going to pre-order again soon, I want two of those limited edition boxes

Ah, I know the feeling of having problems like that. I never did have problems with paying for things with Paypal though. Just paid for things and Paypal automatically pulled the money from my bank account. Fortunately someone gifted TMI to me.

Also, hey, you might not remember me, but I used to go around as LinkDragon, and we've spoken before on one of the Space Quest forums.

MusicallyInspired · 06/05/2009, 11:27 am

Oh really? Nice to see you again, then! I'm actually the only one running The Janitorial Times forums nowadays (SpaceQuest.Net's forums). Not many visitors anymore, though.

Anyway, I don't know if that will work for me or not because I've got a Canadian bank account. I know that debit cards in Canada mean an entirely different thin in the States, so I don't know how different anything else would be too. Maybe I should read up...

Armakuni · 06/05/2009, 11:28 am

Paypal works like that for me, too... instant payment.

I'm laffer btw.. I believe we have spoken before as well elsewhere... it might horrify you to learn that as I guess you're annoyed with me by now after all my complaining

Hm.. that's strange, now I'll have to look up what the difference is with debit cards.

To refresh your memory a bit, I'm the guy that was making the Space Quest movie with Lionhead's The Movies game. :P

Ahh, I think I remember you now.

Lol that does explain a lot. Everywhere I go I see you posting "Keyboard controls. Sux.

."

Armakuni · 06/05/2009, 11:32 am

Haha, not only that, though. I'm actually very positive about these games. Controls are my only issue, everything else seems great.

Did you see the blog post I posted in the 'what's up with the complaints' thread here? That pretty sums up how I feel about the new MI games.

I personally only had minimal trouble with the keyboard controls in W&G. Telltale hasn't said they'll bring back mouse controls, but they have said they're well aware of what we think of the keyboard controls and they're making improvements to them for TMI, so who knows.

Ordered the instant I heard about it, and am not too excited that I fear I won't be able to wait. I'm also awaiting the remake of the first game, and so hope that one will be quickly released.

Guybrush_Threepwood · 06/05/2009, 03:10 pm

Preordered everything!

Secret Fawful · 06/05/2009, 03:16 pm

I preordered on June 2. I graduated on May 30th, so this was an amazing surprise. Almost like a graduation present.

The only problem is that I'm not sure I can wait a month, let alone just a few days over a month.

I've had to avoid every gameplay video and preview to avoid spoilers, but it's been tough.

To relieve my waiting, I'll be replaying the entire Monkey Island series, all month! YEAH! I plan to get Special Edition too.

Threepwood4Life · 06/05/2009, 03:32 pm

pre-ordered on Wednesday, can't wait to get the DVD at the end.

Skippy the Demon · 06/05/2009, 04:08 pm

I pre-ordered and would have pre-ordered SMI:SE if they had it up on their site. Has anyone heard when they plan to release SMI:SE?

MusicallyInspired · 06/05/2009, 04:18 pm

When I first heard the news I thought it was coming out on June 7th. So I thought we had only a week to preorder for that deal! I was both disheartened and relieved to discover it was actually July 7th and I had to wait a whole month instead (giving me time to be able to transfer money into PayPal so I can preorder). Stupid non-instant transfers....

Secret Of Monkey Island: Re-release has naught to do with Tell Tale - it is solely a Lucasarts release.

Joe Newberry · 06/05/2009, 10:01 pm

I have preordered Tales of Monkey Island. I'm not sure yet about the new Secret game. Depends on if there is a way to get a disc version of it. I hate digital downloads if they provide me no way to back-up my software for later. That's why I like TTG's system. I like knowing I can install Sam & Max 20 years from now and still play it even if TTG is out of business or no longer has a server confirming DRM for it.

Melancton · 06/06/2009, 01:06 am

I pre-ordered it and I plan on buying it on the Wii.
